Deploying the MCP server on your linux VM

Create MCP container

Run the following command to create the MCP container

$ python3 create_mcp_container.py -s dev

Create service for the container

Edit /usr/lib/systemd/system/docker-glygen-mcp-dev.service and place the following content in it.

[Unit]
Description=GlyGen MCP Server Container (dev)
Requires=docker.service
After=docker.service
[Service]
Restart=always
ExecStart=/usr/bin/docker start -a running_glygen_mcp_dev
ExecStop=/usr/bin/docker stop -t 2 running_glygen_mcp_dev
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target

This will allow you to start/stop the container with the following commands, and ensure that the container will start on server reboot.

   $ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
   $ sudo systemctl enable docker-glygen-mcp-dev.service
   $ sudo systemctl start docker-glygen-mcp-dev.service
   $ sudo systemctl stop docker-glygen-mcp-dev.service

Testing the MCP server

Runn the following commands to test some of the MCP tools

python3 test-endpoint.py -s dev -g protein -n get_protein_summary
python3 test-endpoint.py -s dev -g site -n get_site_summary
python3 test-endpoint.py -s dev -g glycan -n get_glycan_summary
python3 test-endpoint.py -s dev -g biomarker -n get_biomarker_summary
